The Tony Award-winning Best Play returns to Broadway in a “near-miraculous production” of “mind-bending splendor” (The New York Times). In 1917 Zurich, an artist, a writer and a revolutionary collide in a kaleidoscopic thrill-ride that’s “wickedly playful, intensely entertaining, infectiously theatrical” (Time Out London).
Roundabout reunites with playwright Tom Stoppard (The Real Thing) and director Patrick Marber (Closer) for a dazzling revival from London’s Menier Chocolate Factory (The Color Purple). 2017 Olivier nominee Tom Hollander leads the cast.
Experience London’s “mind-bogglingly entertaining revival” (The Telegraph) of Tom Stoppard’s thrill-ride through the worlds of art and revolution in 1917 Switzerland…and in the maze of one man’s memory.
